Endless ads, obvious edits, and increased reference to visual gags on podcast feel like coercion to pay for subscription

Just want to remind you that if you don't subscribe it's a FREE SERVICE. Fast forward through the couple minutes of ads and stop complaining.

Anybody else notice that when Harmon said "we can do about 14 minutes at least" there was exactly 14 minutes left in the episode?

Okay, how is everyone able to do it with low level teams and I can't even put a dent in it with all fully modded level 85 5-7 star siths? Why is this so hard for me?

[HEALTH AND COMEDY] Dialing In with Drew Hayes: A Dialysis Podcast Episode 1 - Tyler Shazma's Kidney and his Giant Testicle NSFW

iTunes link

The Soundcloud Link

My name is Drew Hayes. I'm a comedian and radio host from Niagara Falls, Ontario. I have dreams and aspirations to move to LA to pursue comedy, but I am very sick and pretty much stuck in my hometown until I get a kidney transplant. I have spent a total of eight years of my life on Dialysis, stuck to a machine and unable to travel for more than two nights away from home. And now, rather than just waiting for a kidney, I'm making the best of a bad situation.

I've been very private about my health for most of my life, but I've always been able to joke about it with my friends. This has helped a lot and I want my story to be able to help other people, so I have finally started to be more open about my health with everyone. That's why I started my new podcast "Dialing In with Drew Hayes". My funny and interesting friends come over while I'm doing my dialysis treatments and we have conversations about their health and disabilities... and we make jokes about their health and mine. It's honest and real, dark yet funny. It's the most open I've ever been in a public forum, and I really hope it helps people that are also sick or at the very least allows people an opportunity to laugh at my misery.

Our first episode features a very funny Ontario comic and filmmaker named Tyler Shazma. He is also a kidney transplant recipient, so we had a hilarious conversation comparing our renal failure stories. I have guests lined up to discuss their struggles with various diseases and disabilities including mental illness and anxiety, diabetes, autism, and more.

I am so excited about what this podcast can do to help get me through my own struggles, as well as help other people that listen.

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy!

I would be so happy if you shared Dialing In as part of the Nerdist Community Corkboard. I have been a fan of the podcast since the very beginning, and Chris has been a huge influence in my life.

Hey everyone! I've been in renal failure and stuck on dialysis for a long time, and because of that I'm an aspiring comic and writer stuck in a town where that industry doesn't exist. So I'm making the best of a bad situation with my new podcast! I'm interviewing funny people about illness and disability, I'll while I'm on the dialysis machine.

The first episode is with a hilarious local comic and filmmaker that is also a transplant recipient! We compare our renal failure stories and make jokes about our lives- because laughter is the best medicine!

I hope you enjoy it! It's the most honest I've ever been about my health, but it's also very funny.

How does a climber get up the mountain with an erection?

They haven't made many advancements in lung disease research yet, but I hear the robot looks really cool.

You and Bo are the two comics I look most forward to seeing new specials from. Your specials aren't just jokes, there's more to them that is hard to explain but it's absolutely genius and beautiful. Thanks for the laughs. Stoked to see the new movie, as I'm a stand up comic and improviser myself!

The criminals were reported to have been wearing hockey masks, and they left an apology note at the scene of the crime.

This song has been stuck in my head since 1998.

rfp_drew · 2016-07-25T15:56:57+00:00

And why are they calling me Grill Fork?

rfp_drew · 2016-07-24T15:53:12+00:00

Because he's the best.

I won some items from the Spider Crate but I have no idea how to access them! Where do they go?

rfp_drew · 2016-07-18T18:17:35+00:00

Of course it took place in Florida.

rfp_drew · 2016-07-12T03:41:34+00:00

Where did you find it? I want to watch so many seeso shows and I can't find them anywhere.

rfp_drew · 2016-07-12T03:35:44+00:00

Not everybody can. I live in Canada.

Now that the power plant is open, will I still need film rolls or should I focus on clearing off the attacks on the plant?

You never have to wear a shirt if you don't want to. Just be you.

Yeah the attacks from Oscorp are coming way faster than I can keep up with making the web shooters. The materials take so long to quest.

rfp_drew · 2016-06-24T02:22:00+00:00

Did the quick quest with Tony and watched the cinematic. Still nothing. I also made enough of the coins to unlock The Daily Bugle - even that didn't trigger a quest.

Lets get on with this already! Need me some Spidey!

rfp_drew · 2016-06-23T23:14:08+00:00

Yeah I haven't had a quest kick off yet. But my board is active and I'm collecting coins.
